Speak for yourself. Texas Winters with Alaska summers sounds awesome! The best summer weather I've ever experienced was 70-80 during the day and 60s at night. Absolutely perfect weather, until snow started to fall from November to June.

If I never had to experience 100F heat again (excepting saunas), then I would die a happy man.

I'd take the Alaska summers, but only without the Alaska bugs. What's the point of Sun if blocked by grey clouds of gnats?

Regardless of temp, Wet = bugs. Texas = dry.

>Texas=dry

Oh how misguided you are

That's the texas I've seen. Compared to Alaska and the rest of pac northwest, Texas is a desert.
> sounds awesome!

As someone living in Britain. Nope, not awesome. I can't remember the last time I saw sun. It's just cloud and cold wind. It feels nigh-constant (year-round) :/

It depends on where you are in the UK, but in the south the average of a good summer is 80F (26C) in the day. It can get up to 90F (32C) in cities, though usually only for a few days to a week at most.
Then I guess you can move to San Diego…
San Diego is heaven's weather! I lived 100 miles to the east and we had 123 °F in August and September

Mind you this doesn't include the Santa Ana's, not that I'm complaining...
